How to make it

  1. Cut the tofu into slices about 1 cm thick, then into squares. Pat dry thoroughly with a paper towel to remove excess moisture — this helps them crisp up in the pan.
  2. Heat the canola oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the tofu pieces and fry until golden brown on both sides, about 3–4 minutes per side.
